Four In A Bed Season 4 Episode 22 Series 4 Episode 22
Four in a Bed is a TV show that features four different owners of B&B's, guesthouses, and hotels all staying at each other's establishments and then giving them a rating based on various criteria such as cleanliness, room quality, and pricing. In Series 4 Episode 22, four owners competing are from the counties of Cumbria, Argyll and Bute, Worcestershire, and Hampshire.
The first establishment visited by the competitors is The Old Vicarage located in Ambleside, Cumbria. The owners Adam and Caroline are new to the hospitality industry and are keen to make a good impression. The four contestants enjoy complementary massages upon arriving, with everyone commenting on the great job Adam and Caroline did in their treatments. The ambiance and setting at the establishment are praised for its quaint charm and beautiful scenery. However, some of the guests had issues with the bathrooms, particularly old-fashioned shower only units, and small sinks. In addition, the establishment itself was determined to be outdated design and furniture which some contestants feel impacts the value.
The second establishment is The Galley of Lorne Inn, Ardfern, Argyll and Bute, owned by Sandy and her daughter Robyn. The location of Galley of Lorne Inn left, all guests, spellbound with stunning views of the sea from the rooms and dining area. The establishment had a warm and welcoming feel to it, with cosy rooms and comfortable beds. The food is a highlight of the stay for all competitors, with everyone enjoying the locally sourced and freshly prepared dishes. However, some guests were not thrilled with the bathroom facilities, as hot and cold water pressures were not consistent enough, and the showers could be outright dangerous with water temperature changing suddenly from very hot to very cold.
Next up is The Court House, located in the small town of Ledbury, Worcestershire. Owned and run by husband and wife, Liz and Brian, the establishment was originally a working courthouse. The quirky character of the establishment is highlighted by its unique and eclectic decor. However, some guests had issues with the rooms being cramped and mirrors being hard to come by. The outdoor areas are commended as everyone enjoys the garden and the tranquil and peaceful atmosphere. The establishment is praised for its breakfast offering, which is delicious, diverse, and homemade.
Finally, we have The Three Cups Inn in Stockbridge, Hampshire, which is owned by siblings Charmaine and Tony. The establishment is located in a picturesque part of the countryside, and all guests were excited to stay in this charming inn. It's clear that Charmaine and Tony put a lot of effort into their B&B as a whole, with attention to detail on decor, hospitality, and cleanliness. The establishment is highly praised for its authentic cuisine, with everyone enjoying the menu which included unique dishes, notably fried calamari. The twin-room, however, was criticized by some guests for not being comfortable, with an exceedingly hard mattress, and with heating not being circulated uniformly around the room.
After their stay, each contestant gave a rating of their stay, and the winner is announced at the end of the episode. The ratings were based on cleanliness, room quality, hospitality and how good breakfast they served, and cost. The prize for winning is that the establishment is featured on the Four in a Bed website, which helps to attract potential future guests.
